Weevil believed he had treated Hancock sincerely.
Yet his sincerity had been met with false affection.
This left Weevil furious, and he felt that Hancock would never become his woman.
If he couldn't have her, then he would destroy her.
Weevil made up his mind. His killing intent boiled over, and a chilling aura radiated from his entire body.
This man, who called himself Whitebeard Jr., really did resemble Whitebeard in his youth, just as Kizaru had said.
Hancock's gaze narrowed slightly. Proud as she was, she had no choice but to take him seriously.
That was because the man before her possessed a monstrous body and Armament Haki.
Hancock retreated, widening the distance between them. At the same time, she condensed a pink heart out of thin air between her hands, then pinched it with her fingers and stretched it into the shape of a bow.
"Captive Arrow!"
The bow reached full draw and released.
Countless heart-shaped arrows tore through the air and shot toward Weevil.
Facing the rain of arrows, Weevil looked ferocious and savage as he raised his bisento high with both hands.
The posture with which he drew his weapon looked very much like Whitebeard's usual stance.
"Tremor Slash!"
Weevil's already unnaturally thick arm suddenly swelled another size as he swung the bisento.
A surging slash wave formed in response, crushing the pink arrows filling the sky before heading straight for Hancock.

Boom!
The slash wave passed beside Hancock and slammed into the distant wall, triggering a violent explosion.
"Damn it! She dodged the move I 'inherited' from Daddy again!"
Weevil withdrew his bisento, his anger plain
